Responsible Dog Ownership – An Evening Well Spent
By Helen Carillo
Last night we attended the Responsible Dog Ownership Class sponsored by the Town of Huntington and the Dog Federation of New York. Nancy Hassel was the host and is the founding member of the New York Dog Federation. The class was fun and informative and Nancy’s love of dogs came through during her enthusiastic and knowledgeable presentation.
Nancy discussed some basic dog behavior, State and Town laws and dog park etiquette. We went around the room discussing some of the issues we have with our own dogs. I seized the opportunity to ask about some fence charging that my dog Peaches engages in with the dog next door. Nancy offered some solid suggestions for all of us.
